IN ERROR.

Complaint has recently reached
this Office, from different sources.
III regard to the failure of sub
scrlbers to get the COURIER. In
some cases, no doubt, the fault
is with the postmaster and the
result of his carelessness in hand
ling the mail. On the postmasters
we do not want to make war be-
cause they are ourabest friends.
We think we discover some of the
trouble in the conduct of the sub
scriber's neighbor who takes the
paper from the office, perhaps be
lieving that he will deliver it to
the proper owner in due time, but
when he gets home his wife, each
child, the maid-Servant and the
man-servant must all read it, lev
cry body likes The CoURIER),
when it is laid aside to be deliv,
cred to the proper owner, but
forgotten. The owner mover sees
it. TO this class we say, if you get
a chance to read the COURIER dc
so, as it makes us glad to know
that everybody likes to read it
but in justice to the many who pay
for it we appeal to you to send il
home when you are done with it
TO take a newspaper from the of
tice and fail to deliver it to It'll
proper owner is a breach of trusr
that no honest man can afford t(
commit,

Notes Of Travel.

A trip around to Evansville,
aboard the steamer Clyde proves
quite interesting to those who will
keep there eyes open-on the
watch for all there is to be seen.
In the first place, Capt. Jim Till,
and his efficient corps of officers,
Robt. McMechan, Arthur Brown
and Jim White, are ever ready to
point out all places of interest
along the river, and are constant
~ extending courtesies and polite
attentions which adds much to the
pleasure of their passengers.
Those who have an eye for the
beauties of nature will find much
to delight, from Swallow Bluff to
the Landing with the euphonious?
name of Mousetail, in the rugged
hills and beautiful cliffs which
adorn the banks of the Tennessee.
In the vicinity of the Landing
called "Bob" there is said to live
the connecting link" of the Oar
winian Theory, who has never, of
his own free will, taken bath.
The few minutes the boat lay at
that landing he stood Oh the brow
of the hill with his arms folded,
his clothing consisting of two gar
mentS, which were the color of
the dirt on which he stood; his
pants( if they deserve the name)
slit up around the ankles, and all
bedraggled with mud; his feet
were bare and on his head was
the remnant of an old black wool
hat. His face was covered with a
short black beard, and he looked
a veritable wild man of the woods.
Just below Sycamore Landing
the classic Duck adds her waters
to help swell the Tennessee, which
in turn empties it's volume of wa
tiers into the Ohio, at the beauti-
full little city Of Paducah.
About Ii miles above Paducah,
on the Ohio river, is the town of
Smithland, KY, where the Cum
berland river loses it's identity by
mingling its waters with those of
the Ohio. Then farther on up the
Ohio and on the Illinois side, we
come to Cave-m- Rock, which, ira
ditiOn says, was once the hiding
place of the desparado, John. A.
Murrell. Here is large cliff
OF rocks, in which is the cave.
The entrance to the cave is quite
large, the top somewhat arched,
but the romance is considerably
blunted by t h e advertisement
over the entrance-St Jacobs Oil.
Evansville is a beautiful city OF
considerable size, and constantly
improving; numbers and numbers
Of new buildings going up and its
Custom House is a building that
any city may well be proud of.

That is to say, your lungs. Also

Very wonderful machinery it is.
Not only the larges air-pasSages,
but the thousands of little tubes
and cavities leading from them.
When these are clogged and
choked with matter which ought
not to be there, your lungs cannot
half do their work. And what
they do, they cannot do well.
Call it Cold, cough, pneumonia,
catarrh, consumption or any of
the family of thrort and nose and
head and lung distractions, all

of. There is jast one sure way to
get rid of them. That is to take

thing else has failed you, you may
